Immune Defense Summit

…it’s my deepest belief that electromagnetic frequency pollution, especially coming from most of the wireless devices used today, is a significant risk factor for disease”~ Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt, during his interview on the Immune Defense Summit

Dr. Klinghardt is founder of the Klinghardt Academy, the American Academy of Neural Therapy, medical director of the Institute of Neural Biology, and lead clinician at the Sophia Health Institute shares this:

All the research points to the fact that it’s the cumulative effect of all the sources of Wi-Fi. We have the Wi-Fi router in the home; unfortunately, most of the cordless phones that are used in the US are also based on Wi-Fi technology. And they use 900 MHz, and they’re broadcasting 24/7 into the rooms in the home. Then we have the baby monitors, a huge source. And then the alarm systems in the house. And the new source, of course, the new kid on the block, is the smart meters…which create devastating amounts of radiation in the home, usually in a sheet that kind of goes horizontally through the house on the level where the smart meter is.

This is an in-depth interview and one of the best I’ve heard on the topic of EMFs and wireless technology and the dangers! He covers mercury containing compact fluorescent lights; Wi-Fi in schools; the responsible use of the cell phone; the impacts of this wireless technology on autism and insomnia, GABA and anxiety levels; how mold becomes more virulent in the presence of Wi-Fi; and how heavy metals in the brain can make you much more susceptible to microwave and wireless technology; how moisture contained in your mattress makes it a microwave receiver and more.

Dr. Klinghardt shares so much about how to protect yourself on the Immune Defense Summit. Here is some advice on how to protect your home from the incoming radio waves from the cell phone towers nearby, and from the neighbors:

We recommend the German system building biology. They have developed wall paints that can be applied to outside the home or inside the home with a graphite paint that’s electroconductive. It creates a faraday cage, basically, that needs to be grounded into the ground wire of your electric system, and shielding curtains that are made from silver coated cloth that deflect the incoming radio waves. That’s pretty much what we do with all of our clients.

He also offers the following tips for reducing exposure:

a sleep sanctuary that looks like a mosquito net that’s put over the bed that reduces the radiation to one-ten thousandths on the inside of it

only switch it on the Wi-Fi router if you need it – if you’re actually doing something with it

Stetzer filters

and much much more.

I was surprised that Dr. Klinghardt didn’t mention the Blushield devices which I learned about recently at the Sydney MINDD conference. I’m going to be following up with him to find out what results he has seen with these protective devices and will report back.

Astragalus is a herb that is well recognized for it’s immune boosting benefits and David Christopher, one of the experts on Immune Defense Summit, shares that it’s his favorite herb for protecting the immune system.

We know the immune system plays a role in anxiety and depression. I’m sure you’ve heard the term psychoneuroimmunology: the study of the interaction between psychological processes and the nervous and immune systems of the human body. So I went searching to see if this herb has any evidence for reducing anxiety and I wasn’t disappointed

It was encouraging to discover very recent research that supports that it has benefits for reducing anxiety and that it offers neuroprotection.

potential neuroprotective properties of Allium hirtifolium and Astragalus hamosus as herbal remedies that could play a role in fostering healthy aging and be considered as useful candidates in decreasing Alzheimer’s disease related symptoms.

David doesn’t cover the above this in his interview so I’m sharing this here to provide you with some context on the importance of supporting the immune system beyond colds and flu.

This is what David does say about astragalus in his interview with Immune Defense Summit host Jonathan Landsman:

I think it is the number one herb for protecting the immune system. And the nice thing about astragalus is it’s a tonic. And tonics are substances that will go either way – if you’ve got over-functioning or if you’ve got under-functioning – it will go whatever the body needs. They also call them adaptogens.

David goes on to share that astragalus does a lot of things for the immune system:

It actually increases the interferon which is the chemical message that the immune system uses to communicate between the cells.

One of the things that astragalus does is it stimulates the production of and activity of the macrophage, the part of the immune system that gobbles up impurities, so it’s nonspecific. And it tends to last for a long, long period of time. They’ve done the studies showing that when you take astragalus, it immediately affects your immune system (within six hours). And it’ll last 72 hours. So it’s fast-working and it’ll last a long time.

I can’t think of anything in the medical profession that has as many benefits as astragalus has. Nothing. Astragalus is my favorite herb for the immune system.

David shares more about astragalus and other immune boosting herbs like echinacea (which also happens to help with reducing anxiety) on the Immune Defense Summit which runs July 24-31.

I do hope you can join us to hear from many experts on various topics related to immunity, many of which have a direct connection to anxiety, mood and overall health.
